3. Yeah
In fact I hear the bill is close to being dead. GOPers have pockets newly bulging with BigPharma money.

5. Those Big Pharma commercials make me chuckle everytime...

..."don't allow the feds to negotiate drug prices"..."prices are going lower, proof competition works"... all paid for by Big Pharma.

The fact is, insurance plans with prescription assistance/coverage will jack up the insurance rates in the next cycle/year for those making claims.
